This RF Safe commentary argues that wireless communications “took a wrong turn” by prioritizing radiofrequency/microwave transmission over light-based approaches, citing Alexander Graham Bell’s 1880 photophone as an alternative model. It suggests that widespread, continuous RF exposure in modern environments is…

This RF Safe article argues that the main barrier to addressing radiofrequency radiation (RFR) and other non-native EMFs is structural policy and governance failure rather than a lack of scientific evidence. It cites the 2021 D.C. Circuit decision in Environmental Health Trust et al. v. FCC as criticism of the FCC’s…

This RF Safe commentary proposes a speculative “bioelectric hypothesis” for the Fermi paradox: that widespread, continuous use of man-made radiofrequency/microwave emissions (“hertzification”) could act as a slow “Great Filter” that causes technological civilizations to decline or go silent. The author argues that…

RF Safe presents the “Herzification / Bioelectric Fidelity Hypothesis,” arguing that modern RF/EMF exposure has rapidly altered the human electromagnetic environment and may degrade biological electrical signaling (“bioelectric fidelity”). The post frames this as an “evidence-anchored hypothesis” that could help…

This RF Safe article argues that Section 704(b) of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (47 U.S.C. §332(c)(7)(B)(iv)) functions as a federal “gag clause” that prevents state and local governments from considering health or environmental effects of RF emissions when making wireless facility siting decisions, so long as…

RF Safe argues that U.S. RF exposure limits remain based on avoiding short-term heating (“thermal-only”) effects and have not been meaningfully updated since the FCC’s 1996 guidelines. The piece links this regulatory approach to community concerns about cell towers near schools, citing reported cancer clusters and…

This paper discusses electromagnetic (EM) fields as an environmental health and sustainability issue in the built and lived environment, particularly with expanding ICT and energy systems. It reports conducting a literature review and EM field audits in three locations across two cities in Canada and the UK to…

This controlled laboratory study examined sex-specific behavioral responses of juvenile shore crabs to magnetic fields intended to represent submarine power cable EMFs. Females showed consistent attraction to EMF-exposed zones across 500–3,200 μT exposures, whereas males showed no consistent spatial preference. The…

This article summarizes a webinar series and frames pesticides and wireless radiation as concurrent environmental health crises affecting ecosystems and public health. It asserts that evidence is building for adverse effects of EMF/wireless radiation in humans, animals, and bees, including “high-certainty links”…

This review discusses how environmental exposures across air, water, and soil pollutants may influence Alzheimer's disease (AD) onset and progression. It highlights EMFs as a potential aggravating factor, reporting associations with oxidative stress, inflammation, calcium dysregulation, and accelerated amyloid-beta…

This exposure assessment measured personal RF electric field strength in multiple indoor and outdoor micro-environments in Malaysia using an ExpoM-RF 4 meter and modeled exposure with machine learning (FCNN, XG Boost) and linear regression. Reported exposures were usually below the stated public limit (61.4 V/m), but…

This laboratory study examined whether a 900 MHz radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) influences the behavior of newly emerged honey bee workers. Compared with controls, the exposed groups showed behavioral changes, with some parameters showing statistically significant differences seven days after exposure.…
